While I was underneath the pins and the pleasantries of my local acupuncturist, the 63rd Annual Venice Film Festival was underway. Even though my dearest pin pusher was thinking of my holistic health and well being, he wasn't to know that things of a more urgent nature where filling the streets of Italia and my consciousness.
Here's Scarlett Johansson waving to some people on the street - delightful.
I saw Sandra Bullock in The Lake House with Keanu Reeves (a reliable source informs me he has the most beautiful complexion and the demeanor to match - thanks A!) I also have another dark secret to reveal - I love soppy love stories and absolutely loved this film (I went on my own because everyone I know refused to sit through it) - majority of reviewers say it stinks but who cares!
Here's one of the most talented and gorgeous actors of our time - Adrien Brody (The Pianist).

Everyone was invited - Valentino Rossi.

Hi Sheila,
Wow! That acupuncturist really did a number on you! Those needles resemble barbeque spits going through your face, which I might add has a delicate tinge of green/aqua to it. Perhaps that’s due to the pain associated with being skewered.
Sandra Bullock looks quite sophisticated and elegant in this photo. I’ve heard the same things about Keanu Reeves; I know he’s had some hard knocks in the past and is trying to move forward as best as possible.
Your deep dark secret is safe with all of us….no one’s going to hold it against you because you happen to love “soppy” love stories. Actually, I think a lot of people enjoy losing themselves in a good cry fest movie but don’t want to admit it. I doubt Hollywood would keep making tear jerker movies if audiences didn’t like them. I adore “Gone With the Wind”; Rhett Butler and Scarlett O’hara’s romantic epic saga of the Civil War always makes me reach for a hankie.
Wow that first pic is something else - where did you find it ?
Hi Sheila,
Everytime I look at the first picture, all I can think is "OUCH"......
ouch
Hi Miss Litzi,
Thankyou for keeping my secret, I too find GONE WITH THE WIND a great way to pass a rainy afternoon - and yes a hanky by my side.
MsDemmie, the picture you see is of Debbie Harry!
Yes and ouch, ouch to you Miss Litzi and Fin!
Hi Sheila,
Do you feel a bit "skewered" after a session with your acupuncturist? I've never been to one but have always wondered what it'd be like.
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who enjoys a good tearfest with "Gone With The Wind".....
